Term · Industrial and trades · MLC-T-IND-002056

An industrial control system architecture that combines the functions of a programmable logic controller (PLC), a personal computer (PC), and input/output (I/O) modules into a single chassis. An Edge Programmable Industrial Controller is designed for edge computing, processing data locally at the machine level rather than sending it to a remote cloud or server. This design reduces latency and provides real-time control while supporting modern networking and security standards.
